They did meet at a very bad time. To save the family business, Jennifer had to sell herself to him. And as a result, receive a look of disdain. "The kind of woman who brings herself to the door like you, I'm not interested." Time went by, Jennifer making him more and more infatuated. But the obsession with the death of his ex-lover causes Jacob pain. A burning love for Jennifer, a tormented love for an ex-lover. Who will Jacon choose? In the end, it was Jennifer who chose, she chose to leave him. Unfortunately, this world is too big to find her, even though he's traveled to the end of it. Sadly, he missed her.
As night fell, faint darkness gradually enveloped the whole place. Soon the moon began to shine, round like a silver tray in the clear, deep sky.
The carved gate that was tightly closed was suddenly pulled open by a strong force, letting out a huge reverberation, waking Jennifer sleeping on the sofa.
Jennifer was almost startled by the loud noise. She was struggling to find the source of the sound when her panicked eyes suddenly saw a person walking in from the door. The panic on her face immediately turned into joy.
"You're back!"
She walked barefoot, happily running to the other person's side. There were parts of comfort, parts of shyness, and a few parts of hesitation in her happy smile.
She walked to his side. The strong smell of alcohol immediately covered her sense of smell, making her frown slightly, but the smile on her face still did not diminish.
"Why do you drink so much wine? Drinking alcohol can be bad for your health. Try using less wine!"
She was like a wife grumbling in his ear. But she didn't think that responding to her concern was a mocking look.
Robert coldly glanced at Jennifer. He didn't say a word, then turned and headed for the stairs, ignoring her.
Jennifer froze. Her face was pale, really wanted to turn around and leave. But when she was thinking about the other part of the contract, she silently gritted her teeth and followed closely behind him.
"Robert . . . . . . "
Waited a month, finally waited until he returned. Tonight, she had to fulfill that part of the contract anyway.
"Robert!"
She called out to him twice, but the person in front pretended not to hear. He is still forward. His steps staggered about drunkenly as if he could fall at any moment. She was a little worried and wanted to reach out her hand to help him, but he waved his hand like chasing a fly.
"Get out now!"
Almost, Jennifer fell. She looked at his back. He is tall and outstandingly looks. If only looking at his back, there was a kind of fatal attraction, making people couldn't help but want to see his true appearance.
Moreover, his appearance also does not disappoint. His face is as if sculpted. His eyebrows are melodious. His eyes are bright and sharp, his nose is high, and his lips are attractive and smooth. Everything about him makes women crazy. They won't hesitate to give themselves to him and want to be with him forever.
He was like the most outstanding masterpiece of the heavens. His whole body exuded an extraordinary noble aura, not a single blemish could be seen on his body. People said that he was like an emperor.
Because of such excellence, wherever he goes, he is the focus of everyone's attention. He is like the brightest star in the sky, always emitting a dazzling light. This halo even dims all other light.
He is the CEO of Anthony Corporation, the only son of the Anthony family, Robert Anthony.
Rumor has it that he is one of the most acclaimed golden bachelors in the world. Rumor has it that there are countless women beside him, but he doesn't care. He still misses and doesn't forget his wife who got married less than half a month unlucky to leave him behind. And he decides that he won't marry anyone else for the rest of his life.
Rumors one by one, each was a topic for people to talk about passionately when the tea and drink were in abundance.
All these things, Jennifer has all heard. But nothing to do with her!
Between her and him, it was just a relationship contract. After the contract ends, they will become two strangers.
Thinking of that, she looked at Robert on the stairs, walking quickly:
"I'll take you back to your room."
She held his arm, stabilizing his restless body.
Robert stopped, tilted his head, and stared at her. His eyes were full of hatred and disgust.
"You just want to find a man, don't you? There are many maids in my house, I don't need your help."
The humiliating words did not make Jennifer afraid. She silently looked at him. Her beautiful face still showed a faint, bright smile that captivated and captured people's souls.
"The one I'm looking for is you! Don't forget, I got your mother's permission to enter Anthony's door!"
Robert looked at the confident expression on her face, and couldn't help but be a little stunned. But soon, his face suddenly sank, and anger showed in his eyes.
"What do you want? Who let you in? Don't bother me!". After saying that, he escaped from Jennifer's hand again and continued upstairs.
Hearing that, Jennifer was also dumbfounded, then understood. So, the contract she signed was volunteered by her and his mother, not with his consent.
No wonder, since she entered the Anthony family, he did not show his face. For a month, he did not come home. She still thought he was busy with work or on a business trip, so he didn't come home, but the real reason was avoiding her.
He was outside freely for a month, but she received all the cold eyes and cold words. Now in the Anthony family, everyone knows she is a woman who sells her body for money. Every day, every look at her is like looking at a mercenary. They are extremely contemptuous of her.
Not only that, because of her, Robert didn't come home for a month. His mother couldn't quickly have a grandson to carry and continue the family line. His mother took all of her anger out on Jennifer. Jennifer lived with Mrs. Anthony's disapproving eyes. There is also a cousin, Mary. Because she can't see Robert's face and hates Jennifer endlessly, Mary always says bitter things.
If it weren't for this money, if it weren't for her father and brother, Jennifer would have brushed her butt and left. Why would she have to live here and look at other people's faces?
No matter how you say it, she was once an aristocratic blood girl who lived a carefree life.
